Affiliate Access
Overview
PCC’s Affiliate Request solution utilizes a combination of Google Forms, AODocs, Kace – Service Desk, and Docusign technologies to streamline the Affiliate Request process.
An Affiliate, in this instance, refers to a partner, intern, vendor, contractor, or other long-term guest who is not an employee of PCC. This process allows a PCC manager to request access to PCC technology resources for an Affiliate, such as wireless or remote access.
See a detailed overview of the Affiliate Access Process.
Acceptable Use and Conduct
Privileged access to PCC’s facilities, information systems, and other secured resources brings with it heightened responsibility, obligation, and liability.
Guests and contractors invited by PCC managers to observe, maintain or enhance PCC services or facilities are bound by the same high standards of appropriate conduct and acceptable use of resources that all PCC managers and staff must abide by. In particular, all guests and contractors are expected to treat the valued customers the college exists to serve, our students, with respect and deference at all times.
Please make sure any guests or contractors you invite understand the statutes, regulations, and policies that govern the lawful, respectful, and appropriate handling of the privileged access to student contact and student records that they may be granted to carry out the tasks they have been invited to perform.
Guests and Contractors are strongly encouraged to review all PCC college policies and observe them with the understanding that the college is a place of business where students come for the sole and serious purpose of obtaining specialized educational services often unavailable to them by other means, and that an invitation to PCC is not an invitation to observe or interact electronically or in person with PCC students or with information about PCC students in any ways not explicitly required by the nature of the invited activity.
Wireless access
PCC guests can access wireless by connecting to the PCCGuest network. The PCCGuest network provides limited internet access and restricts access to some PCC websites and systems. If long-term, or more unfettered access is required, request affiliate access as described below. For additional information on how to connect your device to PCCGuest, please take a look at our Wireless Network Access page.
